dynamic and well-funded research centre in the area of language technology
research.

We are interested in hearing from a wide range of applicants from a variety
of backgrounds, focused around MT and related technologies.

The successful candidate will become the Research Leader and Principal
Investigator of the existing research team based at DCU, joining one of the
world's largest academic MT research groups comprising over 20 researchers
and will additionally contribute to the supervision of postgrads and PhD
students.

The post-holder will have the benefit of interaction and collaboration with
the wider CNGL research teams and will help manage the significant body of
researchers (~50), including PhD students, post-doctoral researchers,
Research Fellows and CNGL staff working on other aspects of Language
Technology across the four partner universities (DCU, Trinity College
